They did really well! My normal size is 7. I bought this for my son for Christmas cause he wanted my apple watch. Very good sound quality and surprising base from such a small device. The outside of the earpieces are embossed with the Shure logo in silver too - discrete but noticeable - these headphones will attract glances. I tried soaking the cups in hot water then locking them to the desk while the cups were warm and had a little water to help the seal. Exactly same as in the past. Some metal splints did spike my hand. They do feel cheaper than the Beats, obviously - the neck cable is more rigid and the wire feels more plastic than rubber. I bought these for marathon training after extensive research.
